Release 1.9.8 (aicodeman) and 0.1.8 (xterm-zerolag-input).
Fixes macOS session start (`posix_spawnp failed.`, issues #6 and #204):
node-pty ships its macOS spawn-helper as mode 0644 and macOS launches every
PTY through it. `scripts/fix-node-pty.mjs` (npm run fix:node-pty) chmods every
helper, prebuilds/ included, then verifies by really opening a PTY; the blind
Node-22+ rebuild is gone. `spawnPtyWithHelperRepair()` self-heals an already
broken install on the first failed spawn.
Adds the phone home screen (session overview under 430px, per-device
`mobileOverviewEnabled`, default ON) and a guided Tailscale path in
install.sh, plus `install.sh tailscale` to retrofit it.

PUT /api/settings service toggles now resolve from `merged` (persisted +
incoming) instead of the raw request body, so a partial PUT no longer
starts the subagent watcher and stops the workflow + image watchers by
treating every omitted key as "apply the default". Pinned by a 4-case
regression test verified to fail against the old handler.
Also trims the links line from the Codeman callout in the
xterm-zerolag-input README.

Plan-usage chip defaults ON on desktop (handhelds stay OFF), resolved
through a single planUsageChipEnabled() helper so the checkbox, the chip
and the create-time statusLineTelemetry flag cannot disagree. Correct the
stale "Cron button defaults ON" comment (it is OFF in code, template and
CSS) and the styles.css comment claiming the server strips the chip's
hidden class.

Replace the misaligned 8-line keystroke-flow diagram (its branch sat two
columns off the junction it attached to) with a two-lane contrast that
makes the same point in two lines: stock xterm.js waiting 300ms vs the
overlay painting immediately. The mechanism detail it was annotating
moved into the following paragraph.
Add a Codeman callout between the badges and the demo GIF, with links to
getcodeman.com, the install one-liner and the repo, and rewrite the
bottom Origin section so it argues credibility instead of repeating the
promo.
Not released: the npm page updates only on publish, so the next COM
needs an "xterm-zerolag-input": patch changeset for this to ship.

Rewrite the xterm-zerolag-input README (hero demo GIF, value-first
structure) and fix its drift against the source: 175 tests not 78,
CJK/emoji wide-char support documented instead of listed as a
limitation, setPrompt() documented.

cmdPattern's empty-matchable unbounded arg group backtracked exponentially
on wrapped heredoc/table lines — hovering one froze the tab for minutes.
Non-empty tokens + bounded reps make it O(n); regression test extracts the
shipped patterns and pins timing on the real killer shapes.
worker-src 'self' blob: is now unconditional so terminal-ui's _safeYield
tick worker (throttling escape) isn't CSP-blocked on non-gesture installs.

Covers all 7 test plan items: Chinese overlap prevention, double-width
spacing, Japanese/Korean input, cursor positioning, line wrapping at
column boundaries, ASCII regression, and teammate terminal panels.

Add charCellWidth/stringCellWidth helpers for Unicode-aware width detection,
fix makeLine to use for...of iteration with visual column positioning, and
fix line splitting in _render to use visual column widths instead of string
length. CJK/fullwidth characters now correctly occupy 2 cell widths.

Overlay renderer (xterm-zerolag-input):
- Add charTop/charHeight to CellDimensions and RenderParams for precise
vertical text positioning matching xterm's canvas renderer
- Convert device.char dimensions to CSS pixels via devicePixelRatio
- Extend line div background 1px past cell boundary to cover compositing
seam between overlay layer (z-index:7) and canvas layer below
- Remove -webkit-font-smoothing/text-rendering overrides that made overlay
text thinner than canvas text
- Add per-span height/lineHeight for natural CSS vertical centering
- Add setPrompt() method for runtime prompt strategy switching (fixes tab
switching crash with "setPrompt is not a function")
app.js duplicate class members:
- Remove dead formatTokens duplicate (line ~5590 shadowed precise version)
- Remove fire-and-forget resetCircuitBreaker duplicate (shadowed notification version)
- Rename mux-panel killAllSessions to killAllMuxSessions (was shadowing
Codeman session killer, breaking Ctrl+K)
Other:
- Update index.html onclick to use killAllMuxSessions
- Add getTeamTasks mock to test route context

- Fix repository URL: nicobailon/claudeman → Ark0N/Claudeman
- Rewrite xterm-zerolag-input README with badges, origin story, architecture
diagrams, better API docs, integration patterns, and "Why This Is Hard"
- Add Published Packages section to Claudeman README with quick start example
- Add callout in Claudeman's local echo section linking to the npm package
- Publish as xterm-zerolag-input@0.1.2

Pitfall 3 (REAL BUG): setFlushed() called _render() unconditionally.
During tab switch, rendering against a stale buffer found the old
session's prompt and locked the column position via the flushed-text
column lock. After the new buffer loaded, rerender() kept the stale
column. Fix: add render parameter (default true), pass false during
tab-switch restore to defer rendering until buffer is loaded.
Pitfall 2: Tab completion "undo" required calling clearFlushed() +
resetBufferDetection() separately — easy to get wrong. Add
undoDetection() convenience method that atomically clears flushed
state and re-enables detection.
Pitfall 1: Backspace Map sync is app-specific (can't be fixed in lib),
but removeChar() return value + getFlushed() make the pattern clean.
Updated tab-switch test to demonstrate the correct pattern.
Tests: 78 total (+4 new)
- setFlushed render=false prevents stale column lock
- setFlushed render=false keeps overlay hidden
- undoDetection clears flushed + re-enables detection
- undoDetection preserves pending text

Second deep audit comparing all 43 integration points in Claudeman's
app.js against the library API found one critical gap:
- Add suppressBufferDetection() — needed when switching to sessions
with UI framework text (Ink) after the prompt that would be falsely
detected. Claudeman sets _bufferDetectDone=true externally; this
method provides the public equivalent.
Tests: 74 total (+13 new)
- Tab-switch save/restore pattern (flushed state roundtrip)
- suppressBufferDetection blocks explicit, implicit (addChar), and
cascade (removeChar) detection paths
- clear() resets suppression
- Methods safe before activate() and after dispose()
- addChar implicit buffer detection on first keystroke
- refreshFont with flushed-only text
README: rewritten from 207 to 459 lines with:
- removeChar cascade explanation with return value table
- Flushed text concept explained
- Integration patterns: buffered, char-at-a-time, tab switching,
tab completion, Ink/TUI frameworks, SSE reconnect, resize, font
- Architecture diagram (keypress → DOM overlay → PTY echo flow)
- Prompt column locking, text wrapping, render cache, scroll awareness
- All known limitations documented

1. Regex global flag safety — strip `g` flag before matching to prevent
lastIndex mutation and missing .index on match results
2. state.visible false before activate — null overlay no longer reports
visible: true
3. removeChar() returns 'pending' | 'flushed' | false instead of boolean
so consumers can distinguish whether to send backspace to PTY
4. removeChar() implements buffer detection cascade (step 3) — detects
existing prompt text when both pending and flushed are empty
5. RenderKey includes text content, not just length — prevents stale
renders when setFlushed() called with same count but different text
6. Remove dead `import type { Terminal }` from test file
7. Remove internal `FontStyle` from public exports

Extract Claudeman's local echo overlay into a reusable xterm.js addon
at packages/xterm-zerolag-input/. Provides instant keystroke feedback
via a DOM overlay, eliminating perceived input latency over high-RTT
connections (SSH, mobile, cloud IDEs).
- Zero dependencies, compatible with xterm v5.x and @xterm/xterm v5.4+
- Configurable prompt detection (character, regex, or custom function)
- Flushed text tracking for tab-switch / deferred echo scenarios
- Per-character grid-aligned rendering matching xterm's canvas output
- 56 tests passing (prompt finder, overlay renderer, full addon lifecycle)
- Dual CJS/ESM build with full TypeScript declarations
Claudeman source is unchanged — migration to consume this lib is a
separate follow-up.
